We used the balance scale to weigh apples.  We used the math words 'heavier' and 'lighter'. 

Here we are using apples to measure how tall we are.    How many apples tall is your "K" Kid?

This book is 4 apples tall.

Our apple-measuring center.  Don't worry mom...We didn't eat these apples!

We found a star inside of an apple!!

Apple Printing

To make apple sauce, we used an apple peeler-corer-slicer.  What a fun tool!!!

It's finally done!  It tastes wonderful...at least most of us thought so.

Here's what we did to make the apple sauce if you want to try it at home.  The ratio is 6 apples to 1 cup of water.  We just added cinnamon and sugar to taste.

Here's the chart/poem that we learned this week.  We used the chart at center time and put a copy of it in our Poetry Folders.  Can you find the word "the"?

We read Ten Apples Up On Top by Theo. LeSieg.  Then we got in 3 groups to create people so we could put our apple graph 'up on top'.

Group1 making their person.

Group 2 working hard

Group3 deciding who should color the shirt

Here's our graph.  Which had the most?  Which colors are equal?  Which had the least?

We learned the word 'estimation' and estimated the number of apples that would fit around this big apple.

We read about apple trees and how they grow and change throughout the seasons to produce apples.  Here a picture or our thumbprint apple trees.

We sequenced apples by size.  We talked about size words like:  enormous, humongous, gigantic, large, tiny, small, and little.
